The first type of instruction used in the study was in phonemic awareness and the decoding method known as phonological awareness plus synthetic phonics, (PASP). This is a very intensive and explicit form of instruction. The other form of instruction, while systematic, was less explicit in phonemic decoding processes and was more practiced based instruction. It was referred to as embedded phonics, (EP). The students in the PASP group were provided materials and instruction from the Auditory Discrimination in Depth program developed by Lindamood. Those students in the EP program were taught to recognize whole words using sight words and other various techniques. The study showed that the EP group had significantly lower performance in not only phonological awareness, phonemic decoding accuracy and word reading accuracy but also in actual word reading skills.
Systematic-Phonics Instruction
Systematic phonics instruction clearly identifies a carefully selected and useful set of letter-sound relationships and organizes the introduction of these relationships into an instructional sequence that is easy to follow. The instructional sequence will usually include the relationships between the sounds associated with single letters, as well as with larger units of written language or even spelling patterns. Systematic instruction also provides students with a number of opportunities to practice the relationships being studied.
Non-systematic Phonics
